    I'm 44 y/o. Lived in Norway since I was 6 y/o after we had to escape from Pakistan.
    I remember this song made me cry the first time I heard it. It was painful and cathartic.
    It still makes me tear up and my throat constrict.

    My mother looked like most people in the neighborhood, but her dialect was different. That was enough to keep her from being able to rent an apartment in Oslo in the late 60s. And she’s white. I didn’t understand this when I was younger, but now I cry every time I hear this song. I empathize.

    They translate how their experience have been, and is for many still, to be kids by first movers (first generation new to a new country, language and culture). Bridging the gap, so that we who don't have that experience get insight. Listen, and try to understand. Karpe has impacted across generation through their music and art. Love them

    You are right, you are you, but like so many, millions, we are so mixed feelings about everything that is our selves. Background, herritage, own weaknesess and social learning. I love that you are you. I love the guy who let himself be rattled by this piece of music. And I love Karpe for writeing and preforming it. ❤

    Karpe is Chirag Patel and Magdi Abdelguid. Your personal story was kind of similar to what Magdi went through. He's Norwegian, but his father's Egyptian, and he kind of struggled a lot being not a "good Muslim" for a while. He was feeling kinda distanced from that part of himself and had sort of an existential crisis--you could hear it from his lyrics in their music.
    He said that once he'd become a father, he realised he wanted his children to be aware of the Egyptian culture as well, and this album was the album that Karpe felt like it was time to embrace both of their heritage and spread it with love across to their fans. They stated in an interview that to listen to Omar Sheriff, you'd HAVE to get out there and talk to people about the lyrics, 'cause the album was filled with different languages. In a way, it made people seek out people of different cultures in order to understand the context of the lyrics.
    This is my first video I found of you, because of Karpe. I thank you for sharing a little of your story and allowing yourself to be vulnerable that way to the internet. And maybe, just like Magdi, you'll find your own way. And I hope that journey, whatever it may look like, is ultimately one filled with peace and understanding.

    This is a great reaction, thank you.
    Norway has "the big 4", which are their big four literary stars: Henrik Ibsen, Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, Jonas Lie and Alexander Kielland. They're all from the 19th century. I'm a firm believer of Karpe being their first actual challengers. You've got their artsy stuff like BARAF/FAIRUZ, their political stuff like "Lett å være rebell i kjellerleiligheten din", "Hvite menn som pusher 50" or "Den Islamske Elefanten", or their mostly old poppy stuff. These guys should genuinly be considered among the greatest artists of all time.

      Even their "poppy" stuff was always brilliant and relatable. They were always rappers and they were always real, but they were never gangsters. Back in '04 when they started seeing some success there was nothing else like them on scene here. Maybe "Klovner i kamp", but that's about it. They changed Norwegian hip hop and they would've changed hip hop across the world if they did it in English.
      "Greatest of all time" is a strong title. Maybe. But certainly on the list of greatest Norwegian artists of all time and that's honestly a strong list in itself.

    Baraf means snow, so it’s “brown feet straight into the snow”.
    And “our mom is white” is sang by Jonas Benyoub, he is a guest artist here. He is half Moroccan, half Norwegian.
    The main duo is Karpe, with Magdi who is half Egyptian, half Norwegian and Chirag who have two Indian parents I believe.
    In Oslo and a few other cities, diversity is common, so no one would be surprised that anyone spoke the language, no matter how they look.
